Indian travellers are in the primary focus of the South African Tourism Board as the country decides to offer them e-visa facilities. The motive is to lure more business travellers, tourists, and moviemakers into South Africa.
The rules for applying e-visa
As per the South African Tourism Board, travellers from India need to provide a negative RT-PCR test. It should be not older than 72 hours from the time of departure.
Mmamoloko Kubayi-Ngubane, the South African tourism minister, stated that the online South African visa application portal will be soon rolled out in India.
The key reasons behind the introduction of e-visa
India is the eighth largest international source market for South Africa. The South African Tourism Board is expecting almost 64% Year-on-Year growth on the visits of Indian travellers.
What's in it for Indian travellers?
Indians planning to visit South Africa will now be able to apply for visas easily. The e-visa facilities will speed up the visa processing providing relief to the tourists.
So let's wait and watch for the next announcement regarding the e-visa initiation.
